More quotes by Martin Heidegger
The question concerning technology is the question concerning the constellation in which revealing and concealing, in which the coming to presence of truth, comes to pass
Martin Heidegger
Dasein is a being that does not simply occur among other beings. Rather it is ontically distinguished by the fact that in its being this being is concerned about its very being. Thus it is constitutive of the being of Dasein to have, in its very being, a relation of being to this being.
Martin Heidegger
To think is to confine yourself to a single thought that one day stands still like a star in the world's sky.
Martin Heidegger
Pessimism negates the existing world. Yet its negating is ambiguous. It can simply will decay and nothingness, but it can also renounce what exists and thus open a path for a new formation of the world.
Martin Heidegger
Philosophy will not be able to effect an immediate transformation of the present condition of the world. This is not only true of philosophy, but of all merely human thought and endeavor.
Martin Heidegger
A giving which gives only its gift, but in the giving holds itself back and withdraws, such a giving we call sending.
Martin Heidegger

Martin Heidegger
Being-alone is a deficient mode of being-with its possibility is a proof for the latter.
Martin Heidegger

Martin Heidegger
In order to remain silent Da-sein must have something to say.
Martin Heidegger
But what is great can only begin great.
Martin Heidegger
Thinking begins only when we have come to know that reason, glorified for centuries, is the stiff-necked adversary of thought.
Martin Heidegger
The possible ranks higher than the actual.
Martin Heidegger
A man's first bond is that which ties him into the national community.
Martin Heidegger
Technology is therefore no mere means. Technology is a way of revealing. If we give heed to this, then another whole realm for the essence of technology will open itself up to us. It is the realm of revealing, i.e., of truth
Martin Heidegger
Being is only Being for Dasein.
Martin Heidegger
Temporality temporalizes as a future which makes present in the process of having been.
Martin Heidegger
The song still remains which names the land over which it sings.
Martin Heidegger
